I think I might do it if I were in my twenties, getting paid bank, and unstoppable again. Otherwise? Naw, Jersey is fine enough. I watched The Commute from the burbs to the Financial District utterly destroy so many peoples lives in the 90's and 00's. They were making phenomenal money and absolutely miserable.
You really gotta live on the line you wanna use to reliably use NJT to commute. It's a fairly good system, considering the others in the country, but it can cause some huge headaches when it fucks up.
Were I working in Manhattan, I think I'd be living in Newark or Jersey City.
There's a somewhat local roaster I make a point of driving to. They roast to order and when I come right after they call, sometimes the bag of still warm. Absolutely amazing coffee, I highly recommend trying them. The Tanzanian Peabody is my favorite, but my roommates say their flavored ones are quite good too.
I'll share a link to their site because they ship, too.
Manifesting is bullshit without action. Making a plan and sticking to it works. Action is the antidote to dispair.
Trading is gambling. At least craps comes with free drinks. Anyone saying they have tricks to get rich fast or attract money is trying to part you from yours.
You are young and you have a lot more energy now than you will later in life. Don't waste it working. Make a point of having fun. Money isn't everything, don't worry about getting rich, worry about making enough to get by comfortably. Companies don't reward hard work and loyalty like they used to. Get in, do your work comfortably, and get out.
Spend more time with friends and loved ones. Make connections and relish in them. They matter far more than any career. Be young and stupid and have fun. It'll be harder in your 30's.
Find a sport you actually enjoy and do it. Preferably one with other people so it's a social activity. Learn to cook vegetables you like to eat. Don't eat fast food, drink lots of water. Get a face cleanser and use it daily. Be kind and help others, it's on us to repair the world and make it a kinder place for all people.
Dude in the image is making a joke off of "news" from a gambling company.
Yes, Israel is trying to develop directed energy weapons for anti-satellite and missile interception capability, trying to build off the small successes they've seen with their Iron Beam program as a direct energy supplement to Iron Dome.
They're hardly alone in pursuing this, the US, UK, Russia and India also have direct energy laser weapon programs in some capacity, France, Germany, Spain, China and others also have non-laser based weapons programs.
They have no idea, they just look at whatever the top post is on an equivalent subreddit and post the title and image. It's like a repost bot account run by a human.
There was a lot of backlash against Nicole de Boer joining the cast, somewhat understandably, but I think it's pretty obvious that should be given to Rick Berman, not Nicole, who did a great job considering the circumstances.
Eh, not in the way that the propagandists and subsequent memes describe it, but I get the impression it affects more of the basics of daily life than the Chinese system.
From what I've seen, you can avoid the gore issues by desaturating the gory image or part of the video. The porn thing is true, women will use image stickers, mosaics or other obscuring methods to cover up even small amounts of cleavage, but that doesn't mean there isn't thirst trap content, it just looks a little different.
That just doesn't have a big impact on the content I actually want to see, so I don't really mind it.
You can literally just make an account on Xiaohongshu and chat with normal people in China.
I routinely swap recipes, talk about video games, new tech, swap cleaning tips, chat about restaurant recommendations and fashion. There's a big cultural difference, sure, but Chinese people are, on the whole, incredibly friendly and hospitable and they're curious about breaking down the myths they've heard about America and happy to break down the myths we've heard about China. We think they have a social credit system and they think a dishwasher can afford a huge "villa". Though now that it's opened up a bit they talk about a poverty "kill line" where if you fall below a certain income you are pretty much doomed to die. Which is exaggerated, but has some basis in reality, like most of these myths.
The one thing I think is a huge barrier is that they can't understand why we drink cold water, even in the winter. So many conversations I've had have been about drinking cold water and asking "don't you get dampness???" Honey, I've either never had dampess or I've been damp my whole life so I don't know.
Either way, they're just, like, people. And thanks to the magic of the internet, you can just talk to those people.
The social credit system thing was largely just US propaganda. It was tested it one city and abandoned. China has a credit score system just like most major economies, but from what I understand, the US system has far more restrictions on citizen's actions based on the credit system than China does. Theirs only impacts lending, ours can impact housing and employment (though I think this practice is on the out and banned in many states).
At the time of posting I was chatting with a woman from Guangdong about her recommendations for Samsung phones to buy my partner, so, I don't think so.
Hey I'm exactly one voter, write an article about some crazy shit I think why don't ya?

Index funds, like other posters said, are a great idea, too.
Oh and never bother with anything nicotine related it's just not worth it

But above all, have fun and enjoy this time

I use Mealie and I like it a lot, but I mostly chose it because I couldn't get Tandoor running on my Pi 5.
Edit: Ah, sorry, missed the thing about offline functionality.

Can you link the reddit post you reposted this from? I wanna see how they clarify the age of the shark, because, surely not....
They nipped out the non-head hair genes during the cloning, duhhhhhhhhhhh

Oh or the NPC streams? Those are weird, yo.
